Me too. I never would have thought they would make a good subject but they do.

No loose trolleys in here

But if there were, I would totally shoot them.

there's nothing quite catching a trolley in the wild....

I've started to feel sorry for the lone trolleys left at the outskirts of the parking lots.

It's been a dog's age since I've attempted a SIC, and even longer since I've succeeded. I'm going to try. Now which victim to bring to my new K-3III?

I think there are more loose than where they should be…

Oooh, a new player, excellent. I am looking forward to seeing what the FA 43mm Limited is like, ready for when I win it in the raffle

welcome to the single in

while this is a challenge, we don't beat ourselves up about getting the shot. If you can't get one we have the option of "safeties" which are shots of anything just to fulfill the challenge. If you can't get a safety, missing a day isn't a disaster. Keep an eye open for the themes

. Most of us post via flickr, if you arent sure hjow that works, just ask. We do try to critique but sometimes we just don't have time, which is fine. Bottom line, its a bit of fun. Enjoy participating but only do what you have time to do, you will find the pressure starts around day 25 (and way sooner if you pick a lens you don't like!). beware, it can be addictive! Welcome to the party

Tsuken had me intrigued with all this talk of the DA 21mm, I just had one arrived perhaps the F 50mm 1.4, who knows maybe something else will pop into my mind tomorrow

**pepperberry farm** · 07-31-2021, 07:02 AM

you never know, right?

I'm still pondering the 77 Limited, just to give me a break from manual lenses for a month....

**pepperberry farm** · 07-31-2021, 09:14 AM

I have a question for the masses:

which camera body seemed to meter better with manual focus (specifically M42) lenses?

K-3 or K-5 IIs?

or is there a better DSLR body for metering that is APS-C and (preferably) uses the D-Li90 battery?
